One of the most frustrating things about the impeachment work is that @citizensimpeachment.com had to work so incredibly hard just to get the word impeachment into Congress's mouth.

You guys. This is a no-brainer.
Your daily reminder that Donald Trump is a monstrous racist and should be impeached for that alone.

Continually disgusted not only by the blatant Islamophobia and racism, but also by the Republican Party’s embrace of Fine and his views.

Utterly disqualifying in a United States Congressman, as it would be in any job.

The New York Times reports that the Department of Homeland Security has sent Google, Meta, and other media corporations subpoenas for the names on accounts that criticize ICE enforcement. The department wants to identify Americans who oppose what it’s doing. I’ll save them time.

I think we are going to have a Democratic-controlled Senate.

And all we will need for the leadership of that Democratic Senate to do is hold actual, real, impeachment trials.

As the Constitution requires.

Not the bullshit fake trials like the ones that the Senate held in 2020 and 2021...

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

Congress can, and should, impeach Noem. However, these details of Corey and Kristi's incompetence/grift/trashiness probably came from the White House, so maybe they'll get fired and save Congress from doing anything? 🫠

House Republicans just passed the #SaveAmericaAct. It is a slap in the face to military families. 🇺🇸 This bill forces overseas military spouses to fly home to prove citizenship in person. It's unworkable, unfair, and disenfranchises those sacrificing the most. #HandsOffHerVote
